I'm of two minds about this one

There's a new facebook group set up to protest Expelled.

I am ambivalent for the usual reasons---protest, and you give the reactionary religious cults more publicity, and an illusion of power. Fail to protest, and you appear to consent to their insanity.

I figure there will be protests either way, so go and chose your way...protest loudly, or protest silently. But please, at least let someone know what you think, even if it's just your friends or coworkers. I'm not one to keep my mouth shut, so I'm pretty sure I'll be pissing someone off.
